too close for comfort

half accidentally looked at some pic's very similar to what i used to obsess over. it's been a few years. don't want to go down that road again. this website helped me stop, so checking in here. hoping to stay sober.

Yeah, it is inevitable.  Not only is porn everywhere, but sexual images are everywhere.  And, for many of us, we don't even need sexual images that remind us of what used to get us going, sometimes the triggers are completely non sexual.

I've found it helpful to use my distance from my porn addiction (year and a half out for me) to think in a detached way about the tastes that I had.  At least this way I can develop a new relationship with those things so that I can deal with them in a different way when I run into it out in the wild.  I'm not there yet, but it does help.
